If you've ever known someone with narcolepsy, then you would understand. Just the fact of having to plan out naps during your day just to not pass out in public. Having something suddenly scare you, make you laugh too hard, or excite you could cause an episode. I didn't have a clue till I met my best friend. Its a scary disease.May 1st, 2016Someone from Goodhue, MN signed.

As someone who has lived with this disease all my life, I can attest to everything above. I have trouble holding a job because I fall asleep several times a day. This sleep is not "controllable", and I am not able to take some of the necessary medications due to other health problems. Please consider this.REPORT COMMENTS
